I'm a mushroom - 22

October 24, 2019
(Aubrey's POV)

The entire date I couldn't get Nam-joon off my mind, that is until I feel the duchbag's hand rieding up my thigh.

I smack his hand away and leave the restaurant in tears. "Hey baby, where are you going?" He slurred drunkenly.

"Home." I huff, I smack him and walk away calling my brother on the phone. "Elijah, please pick me up I'm out side of that book store we loved as kids." I sniff.

"I'm on my way, what happened?" He asks over the phone.

"A really bad date at the end of a terrable day, I'll tell you when you get here." I wipe away a tear as I sit on a park bench.

I wait for what feels like hours in the bitter cold for Elijah but never shows up, instead Nam-joon does.

He steps out of his car wearing a grey tweed coat that looks so warm I can almost feel it.

He rushes over to me and throws his coat over my shoulders. I start to cry again and wrap my arms around his neck, which was a challange for my five foot five inch frame because Nam-joon is five foot eleven inches.

"Lets get you home and warm. My car radiaters on, it's nice and warm in there." Nam-joon tempts me into going with him rather than trying to walk home or call Elijah to see what his problem is. "Do you want to talk about it?" Nam-joon asks as he heads off down the road.

I don't answer him I just rest my head on the window rubbing my eyes harshly.

"Not so rough, you'll hurt yourself." Nam-joon hands me a tissue and I thank him brifely.

"God, is it national pick on women's day and no one thought to tell us to lock up our hearts because hey, tomorrow they'll be back to being the gentlemen you want them to be not the assholes they are today." I laugh patheticaly at my atempt at sarcasum.

Nam-joon can't even look at me right now. "He harassed me, you know?" I anounce when we were far enough that I knew he wouldn't turn around.

"He what?!" Nam-joon stopped the car harshly sending me folwards in my seatbelt.

"He slid his hand up my thigh." I sniff. "Don't do anything stupid." I warn.

"Aubrey? I really like you, is it my fault I want to protect you?" Nam-joon sighed finally looking at me.

His hands grasped the stearing wheel tightly for a moment almost as if he was trying to restrain himself and then his lips came crashing into mine sending my whole world upside down.

I melt into his kiss before we had to pull away and he kept driving.

I rest my head on his shoulder this time and fell asleep. When I arive home Elijah was waiting for me with Zeraphina.

"Dangsin-eun chimdae agassie iss-eoyahabnida. (You should be in bed young lady.)" I smile as I make my way towards her. I pick her up and swing her around. "Naneun deo isang nae jag-eun beoseos-eul boji moshabnida. (I hardly get to see my little mushroom anymore.)" I coo.

"Annyeong, eomma. (Hi mommy.)" Zeraphina smiled her cheeky smile at me.

"God what happened to your eye?" Elijah questioned, my make up must have rubbed off.

"Hyun-joong punched me. It's probably best if you don't come in, her biological father does late shifts sometimes to try and finish my room." I explain.

"He left a while ago, both of them." Nam-joon Informed. "Seok-jin fired them after I punched the living day lights out of Hyun-joong." Nam-joon filled me in.

"Thank you." I kiss his cheek with Zeraphina still in my arms.

"Ew." Zeraphina shook her head at the sight of seeing her mother kissing another man.

"Ppyam-e kiseuhago sipni? (Do you want to give him a kiss on the cheek?)" I tease.

Nam-joon taps his cheek leaning in so Zeraphina can reach, she leans in and kissed him quickly before wipeing her mouth on the back of her hand.

"Naneun jeon-e gongjuege kiseu han jeog-i eobsda. (I've never been kissed by a princess before.)" Nam-joon fake blushed.

"Naneun gongjuga anigo beoseos-ibnida. (I'm not a princess, I'm a mushroom, silly.)" Zeraphina giggled.

"Dangsin-eun chinjeolhan ai jung hanaibnida. (You're one of a kind kid.)" Nam-joon laughed.

I wish I could stay in this moment forever, but I can't, I have to go back to reality.

The reality that Nam-joon and I will never have a proper relationship.

I send Elijah and Zeraphina inside after putting her down and follw her, Nam-joon follows me and closed the door.

"Who is this cuteie?" Seok-jin asked.

"Seraphina." Zeraphina attempts.

"Geunyeoui ileum-eun Zeraphina. Yeong-eoleul eotteohge baewossseubnikka? (Her name is Zeraphina. How did you learn English?)" I ask.

"Hyun-ji and I have been teaching her some English before our wedding. By the way it's this Christmas and your my maid of honor." Elijah informed takeing a seat on the couch.

"You're telling me this two months before your wedding?" I question.

"Yeah to the day actually." He laughed.

"Awe Christmas Eve wedding." I sat on the couch next to Elija.

Nam-joon sat on the floor as he played with Zeraphina, trying to entertain her.

Smileing happily at the pair I felt Elijah grab my hand comfortingly. "What happened today?" Elijah asked.

"You were on Top K-pop Goss this morning, right?" I confirm.

"Yeah." Elijah looked at me expectantly.

"Then you saw Nam-joon be a-" I was about to say dick head when I saw Zeraphina looking up at me. "-meany." I adjust.

"I did." Elijah glared at Nam-joon momenteraly.

"Then Hyun-joong gave me a shiner and then on my date, this guy slid his had up my thigh." I hiss.

"Inner thigh?" Elijah clarifies.

"What's the difference?" I roll my eyes.

"Outer thigh I'm kicking his butt, inner thigh I'm gonna kill a bitch." Elijah thretened as his eyes grew wider.

"When shall I expect you out of jail?" I lower my head suddenly feeling dirty and used.

"Where does he live?" Nam-joon groweld instead of Elijah.

I shake my head and stand up. "You should probably go home Elijah, Hyun-ji will get worried." I smile slightly at the thought that my brother found somone decent.
